Content:
Title: Admissions Counselor (PRN) - Oasis Behavioral Health Shift: Day and Night available
First paragraph: "We are searching for a dedicated behavioral health professional with a proven ability to support patients and families through the admissions process with empathy, professionalism, and urgency. Experienced in insurance verification, care coordination, pre-admission assessments, and communication with clinical teams to ensure appropriate placement, continuity of care, and positive patient outcomes."
That's about the role.
Then "Essential Functions" list: many bullet-like sentences. We'll treat as Responsibilities.
Then "Other Functions": "Perform other functions and tasks as assigned."
Then "Education/Experience/Skill Requirements": includes Bachelor's degree required, Master's preferred, experience, licenses, CPR etc.
Then "Additional Regulatory Requirements": includes management reserves right to add/remove duties.
Then "We are committed to providing equal employment opportunities..." that's EEO boilerplate, remove.
Then "AHMKT" maybe some code, ignore.
We need sections: About the role (maybe combine first paragraph). Responsibilities (Essential Functions + Other Functions). Requirements (Education/Experience/Skill Requirements). Qualifications maybe same as Requirements? But we should not duplicate. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include only those with real content.
We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (education/experience/skill), Qualifications maybe overlapping with Requirements? Could treat Requirements as education/experience, Qualifications as licenses/certifications? But we have both in same block. Could split: Requirements: Education/Experience; Qualifications: Licenses/Designations/Certifications; Skills maybe not separate.
But we must not create thin sections. Let's see if we have enough for each.
Education/Experience/Skill Requirements block includes: Bachelor’s degree required, Master's preferred, experience, licenses/designations/certifications (CPR, de-escalation, first aid). Could be considered Requirements. Qualifications maybe not needed separate.
We could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covering education, experience, licenses). Possibly Skills not needed separate.
Benefits, Pay, Schedule: The posting mentions Shift: Day and Night available. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with that detail. No explicit benefits or pay mentioned. So we omit Benefits and Pay.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Schedule.
Check if any other content like "Other Functions" could be part of Responsibilities.
Now format.
Use for each heading.
Use - for list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use
.
We need to preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We must not repeat job title.
We must not include Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, Additional Regulatory Requirements? That's a statement about management reserves right to add/remove duties. That's substantive? It's a generic statement but maybe considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but still a generic disclaimer. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "Additional Regulatory Requirements" might be considered legal boilerplate. It says: "While this job description is intended to be an accurate reflection of the requirements of the job, management reserves the right to add or remove duties from particular jobs when circumstances (e.g. emergencies, changes in workload, rush jobs, or technological developments) dictate." That's a typical disclaimer; likely considered legal boilerplate. Should we remove? Probably yes, as it's legal. So we omit that.
Also "We are committed to providing equal employment opportunities..." remove.
Now we need to capture all substantive info from Essential Functions and Other Functions.
Let's list Essential Functions sentences:
- Respond to inquiries about the facility within facility policy timeframes.
- Ability to develop therapeutic relationships with patients and families.
- Perform benefit eligibility to ensure patient benefits are active at the time of admission.
- Communicate benefit eligibility to the business office and the patient or significant other.
- Collaborate with facility medical and psychiatric personnel to ensure appropriate recommendations regarding pending referrals.
- Coordinate admission and transfer from referral sources and between levels of care within the facility.
- Maintain knowledge of milieu management.
- Communicate projected admissions to designated internal representatives promptly.
- Ensure all clinical information from referral sources or patients (including medical comorbidity information) is received, when possible, prior to patient admission.
- Schedule (when applicable) and complete pre-admission assessments, consult with the admitting physician and communicate disposition recommendations to the patient or their family.
- Possess skill in preparing and maintaining appropriate medical record documentation that will result in authorization at the level of care being requested of the payor.
- Complete initial pre-authorization for treatment and admission prior to admission, when possible, and within payor timeframe guidelines.
- Admit the patient to the registration and accounting system.
- Complete all admission and consent forms with the patient.
- Demonstrate a positive, empathetic, and professional attitude toward customers always.
- When patient needs are not met, acknowledge and work to resolve complaints.
- Recognize that patient safety is a top priority.
- When a patient’s needs are not met, acknowledge and work to resolve complaints. (duplicate)
- Recognize that patient safety is a top priority. (duplicate)
- Coordinate care for patients who are not being admitted and ensure that they receive appropriate follow-up care and referrals.
- Demonstrate a sense of urgency related to the importance of patient safety and provide excellent customer service.
- Responsible for conducting safety checks and ensuring that supervision is conducted at 15-minute intervals, as noted in special precautions, or by individualized supervision guidelines as needed.
Other Functions: Perform other functions and tasks as assigned.
We need to deduplicate duplicates? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove duplicated lines. So we should remove duplicate sentences. There are duplicates: "When patient needs are not met, acknowledge and work to resolve complaints." appears twice. Also "Recognize that patient safety is a top priority." appears twice. We'll keep one each.
Now Education/Experience/Skill Requirements block:
- Bachelor’s degree in a social services field required (if state allows).
- Master's degree in a social services field (psychology, counseling, social work, sociology, health administration, nursing) or RN preferred.
- One or more years’ experience in mental/behavioral health working with individuals in a clinical or observational capacity preferred.
- Licenses/Designations/Certifications: Current licensure, as preferred for the area of clinical specialty, as designated by the state in which the facility operates.
- CPR and de-escalation/restraint certification required (training available upon hire and offered by facility).
- First aid may be preferred based on state or facility.
We need to keep all.
Now Schedule: "Shift: Day and Night available". Also maybe "PRN" indicates as needed. We'll include that.
Now About the role: The first two sentences: "We are searching for a dedicated behavioral health professional with a proven ability to support patients and families through the admissions process with empathy, professionalism, and urgency. Experienced in insurance verification, care coordination, pre-admission assessments, and communication with clinical teams to ensure appropriate placement, continuity of care, and positive patient outcomes."
We could also include that it's Admissions Counselor (PRN) - Oasis Behavioral Health but we shouldn't repeat job title as heading; but we can include in prose? The instruction: Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it). It doesn't forbid including it in prose. But we might keep it as part of About the role? Might be redundant but okay. Safer to not include the title again; just keep the description.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only.
